NIKKI SIXX On Recording With SIXX: A.M. - "Creating New Music Is Like A Rollercoaster Ride Marked By The Highest Highs And The Lowest Lows"
February 24, 2010, 14 years ago
MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx has issued the following update on his studio time with his SIXX: A.M. project:
"Creating new music is like a rollercoaster ride marked by the highest highs and the lowest lows.This dose of high highs and low lows doubles while writing a book that requires me to uncover things from my past I have either forgotten about or chosen to keep hidden away. Finally, flushing these waves of emotional honesty through the lens of photography, whilst meshing the words and music together is exhausting, almost to the point of becoming spiritual.
The last few weeks in the studio with Sixx: A.M. has been intense and exhilarating... (not to mention a fucking blast ). We finished two more new tunes yesterday. One will rip your heart out and leave it torn to pieces on the floor... and one is gonna rip your face off... either way, you're pretty much fucked... I know I am.
I don't see this project as just another “rock” record. This is a very important album to us as we are constantly struggling for greatness and trying to push the envelope. It's not only musically, but also lyrically condensed into these very potent little potions that I feel are open to interpretation.
When the whole project unfolds, I hope people will be blindsided by the big picture. I feel we're pushing ourselves further beyond what we, as a band, ever expected.
On the photography front, I have some really big shoots planned, more on that later as well.
Last but not least, I am loving doing Sixx Sense. Hope you're having a blast listening."
Stay tuned for further updates. More on Sixx: A.M. at this location.
